I rolled my eyes at the bank teller back in early April 2020 when I walked into the bank without a mask and they sternly told me to put a mask on. 😳 I said, “excuse me? You are telling me to put a mask on and cover my face? You do know this is a bank, right? When has anyone EVER been allowed to wear a mask in a bank?” They all looked at me and shrugged.

So I put my mask on, stuck my finger in my sweatshirt pocket, pointed it at them and said, “this is a stick up now give me all your money” I’m not allowed back there. 😂 😂 JK 😉 But the first part was true.

I was told to put a mask on or leave the bank. I said I would leave and then take all of my money with me. We moved our business account and personal the next day!

Hope you did not take your money to PNC Bank: They cancelled Don Trump Junior's accounts for his startup news network MXMNews and confiscated the funds. Once Don and friends began to raise holy hell on the web about this, PNC said "we made a mistake". Tough noogies, said Don, and moved the company's accounts elsewhere.

With progresssives, their truth becomes their mistake ONLY when they get caught. Forewarned is forearmed.

Yes. Don't use any national bank. Use a local credit union.

Spread your loot over several. And keep a major amount in cash safe in your home in case you get freezed out for wrong think. 'Canadian Truckers'

Yeah, well, our credit union only allows you to withdraw $5,000 in cash a day. The rest has to be in the form of a check.

Thanks for this information. The article I found about this DID NOT say anything about "we made a mistake". Instead, the article said Don received what I would call a b.s. form letter and a cashiers check for his balance. PNC was contacted to comment and said they do not discuss account closures. I hope PNC did say " we made a mistake", but I fear the article I read is what occurred. This wildness sickens me.

Doubtful that it’s useful for business accounts, but for all personal banking needs, I always recommend a credit union over any commercial bank anywhere. In general, you can’t beat the low fees and better interest rates – the credit union works *for* their members and anyone can join! And I’ll put in a quick plug for Logix federal credit union… I’ve been with them for close to 40 years (including their name change) and I can’t speak highly enough about their customer service (they actually have a real person answer their phones instead of forcing you through a maze of annoying voice (non-) recognition menu items!) and competitive mortgage/loan services (not available in all states, but look them up!). Ladies and gentlemen – drop your commercial bank accounts and move to a credit union! You can thank me later :-)

Thank you Linda. I’m checking Logix out now.

To make sure you get the correct site: logixbanking dot com. I haven’t had a need to check in forever, but there used to be a page where they listed their rates (both loan and deposit/certificate) and fees for easy comparison. Their CS reps are also very helpful at 800-328-5328. Please also note that you do *not* need to be an employee of any particular industry or union. Membership info can be found on their website or the CS number. Needless to say, I’ve been very happy with the value of their service over the years. Hope this helps "e." :-)

Thanks for that. I use a local credit union that has been pretty good, but they did require masks just like the others. Fortunately I rarely need to enter their office.

I wore a plague doctor mask early on, beak and all. Many were pissed, but a few wanted pics. I also had a silver devil mask, which was hilarious because it has a cutout in the mouth, which brought out all the store managers, who apparently also doctors, to tell me that it wasn't acceptable for that reason.

I went into a Bank of America to make a cash deposit in Waltham, MA. I think it was in October 2020 after my chefs clubs annual fundraising golf outing. Being the treasurer it was my responsibility to get the funds deposited. Let me point out that this is the "cradle of liberty" were the "shot heard around the world" kicked off the American Revolution. The staff yelled at me about not having a mask on and then the masked guard reached for his gun! I looked at him and said "really dude"? The cowardice and lack of fidelity to liberty by my fellow citizens was profound and disappointing. In a little over six months, my better half and I, left our home of 30 plus years and settled here in Florida. I have never worn a mask and I never will!!

I thought the same thing about masks at the beginning of 2020 about just how easy it would be to rob a bank, shoplift, commit a murder, etc. and no one in any authority seemed to care.

My 5 year old made the following comment in Spring of 2020 when we were masking up going to the store: "but aren't they gonna think we're robbers?" "not this year"

Then again, I hear in some states you can shoplift up to $1000 and they can't (or won't) do anything. Apparently at Brooks Bros, the policy is not to go after shoplifters.

I recently saw a homeless guy walk into Marshall’s with an empty bag, i watched him fill it up with packages of white tshirts and underwear and socks and walk right out. I was actually frozen like I couldn’t believe my eyes, once he was on his bicycle and spinning away; I said to the nearest lady stocking shelf’s, you know that guy just stole a bunch of stuff right? She said no!! She yelled for the manager and they all ran for the door to take a look but the manager said, no don’t ever get involved, just let him go! Now I do think they will check cameras and maybe look out for him, if he comes back. But word is out. Stealing is easy and ok. For certain populations. At least.

I was in Walmart and watched a young man with a full backpack of merchandise walk straight for the exit. He dropped a couple of items from the pack that hit the floor and instead of stopping to pick them up, he bolted for the exit and was gone. And this is in FL panhandle. I just rolled my eyeballs.

It makes you just want to taze those people for the stores. No liability. Now YOU can run off (make sure you wear a mask to conceal your identity though 🤣)

Two months ago I had to show my receipt to exit a Wal-Mart in suburban Pittsburgh. This store stations an employee at its exits. I was originally POed that I was questioned, but now I realize it is Wal-Mart avoiding "targeting" allegations by asking most customers to provide their receipt.

Same with Nordstroms in PNW. Staff are ordered not to interfere because it is unsafe … and it is unsafe🤯. $1000 and over is covered by insurance. Told to me by store employee.

Yes. In CA you can steal up to $900 no problem. Big drugstore chains are pulling out of areas due to the theft. At Walmart, you cannot even buy a lipstick without attempting to find someone to unlock the cabinet.

My husband was told he could not enter the bank, which was only allowing one person at a time in anyway, without a mask, when they asked him if he had one he said no and he did not have a gun either, no plans on holding up the place. They did not find it amusing and made him move out of line and only allowed him in once everyone else in the line had been helped. Needless to say we do not keep our money in said bank.

I never wore a mask but wore a clear face shield until we started figuring out it was illegal to demand masking.. I could not breath in a mask. I could not widely smile in a mask for everyone to see. I like to wear lipstick and gloss. The jokes in the banks were always fun!

I wore the face rags for the first 18 months--after getting nauseated and disoriented at my annual physical (which included two diagnostic tests) that lasted an hour and a half--I threw that nasty rag up in the air as soon as I exited the building and vowed NEVER to wear a mask again. AND I HAVE KEPT THAT VOW!

One hundred percent! But, in order to get that Justice it appears we will need to win over more hearts and minds. "These battles are won in the courts of law, and the courts of public opinion, and they are not won in the courts of law until they are won in the courts of public opinion."

I think she correct.

The Vietnam War....

Yes, the Covid Coup is exposed to those of us with eyes to see.

But the public still sleeps in far too many cases and the evil ones have control of all TV media. Many people believe what they see on the idiot box is reality. They are horribly wrong, but they truly don't know it.

Ditto masses of our elected officials. And the unelected dictator class is terrified of being exposed as the criminals and cowards they are.

Look how lonely Dr.s like Pierre Kory, Paul Marik, Peter McCullough and our wonderful departed Zev Zelenko were, and still are. We have SO much pushing still to do, and the perps look to bring WW lll to cover up their crimes.

Time to take that monsterous lie on next.

However, with God, all things are possible. Let's pray we can expose these demons before they kill millions more.
